"If you cannot be on the project each day to check on things, then you should not try and be your own contractor"
- Robert Metcalfe
About this Quote
This quote by Robert Metcalfe is highlighting the value of existing and involved in a task if you are going to be your own contractor. He is recommending that if you are unable to be there every day to examine the progress of the task, then you ought to not try to handle the duty of being the specialist. This is since being a specialist needs a great deal of dedication and attention to information, and if you are not able to be there every day to make sure that the project is going according to plan, then it is not a great idea to take on the function. Metcalfe is highlighting the significance of being present and involved in a project if you are going to be your own professional, and that if you can not devote to this, then it is best to leave the job to someone else.
